title: Augmentation of prolactin response to TRH after cyproheptadine.
abstract: Serum PRL, TSH, T3 and T4 were estimated in the basal state and following iv bolus injection of 100 micrograms synthetic thyrotropin releasing hormone before and 7 days after cyproheptadine treatment in 5 healthy adult males. Only the PRL response to TRH was augmented after cyproheptadine. This is perhaps related to the antidopaminergic effect of cyproheptadine.
